Jumpin' Joes Sports Bar & Grill

"After some closings of local establishments, we were trying to find someplace local to watch the NFL games. We had never been here before, but thought we would check it out for the 49ers/Lions Conference championship game. After this visit we will have to find a new location for games. Whereas they have plenty of TVs, the major one is a projection screen and worked fine, but some of the smaller TVs were not functioning properly. Also, the seating is not the most comfortable. They have a section in front of the large TV with high tables but they have hard stools for seats. The bar has seats, but then you are sitting at the bar. We find a low table by the bar with backed seats. They were also hard plastic. I think we were anticipating too much for a Bar & Grill inside a Freeport Bowling Alley. There were two different bartenders working that night. One appeared to be a bartender/cook while the other filled every other roll. The bartender/cook was kind of rude and gave off the vibe she wanted to be anywhere else in the world and we were putting her out. The other one was friendly and helpful and was a joy to interact. As for the food. MEH. We started with Joe’s Tatchos. These were unimpressive and bland. We’ve had better in many other places. Even the cheese tasted like generic canned cheese sauce. After I had Joe’s Smoked Beef Brisket. I wish I had not. It was some of the fattiest brisket served on a generic hamburger bun. At least the brisket was tender and juicy, because there was almost some of the blandest food I’ve had, this includes hospital and nursing home food. My Girlfriend had the pulled pork sandwich, with the same issue. There was really no flavor to it. Even after adding BBQ sauce they had, neither was satisfying. Honestly, I’ve had tap water that had more flavor. Overall, Not impressed. It’s not bad, but I’ve had so much better."

"First let me start by saying it's awesome your on doordash! I got food to go. The sandwiches were good, but no sauce. Both sandwiches were missing the BBQ. We had to add our own sauce. The curds also did not come with the ranch. No napkins food seemed to be thrown together. Pulled pork bun was covered in grease. Curds taste doughy"

"Mediocre bar, nothing spectacular.. Bartender was very nice but not a stop I’m future.."

"Came back a year later on a TUESDAY! yep tacos still tasty beers still cold and service is great. Added pics. True sports bar with great specials on drinks and food. You can walk right out into the bowling alley or down to the arcade. I happen to be there on a Taco Tuesday. Lucky me. Both the hard and soft taco or overflowing with ingredients. The salsa and sour cream spot on. Service was great."

"I went to Jumping Joe's Friday night after work and was pleasantly served by Morgan there. She does a great job and is always happy to promptly serve her customers. (Update) I came back Sunday for the Loaded Bloody Mary and it was delicious. Rich did a fantastic job with the food and Shanna made the beverage perfectly. I would also like to mention that Jaime normally helps Rich on Sundays and she's possibly the best bar-tender I've ever been served by. Joe's overall gets 4stars, but these individuals get 5"
